Region
Campania
Volcanic complexity meets ancient viticulture across Vesuvius, Irpinia and the southern coast. Fiano and Greco rank among Italy's finest whites; Taurasi delivers Aglianico at its most powerful. Strong terroir credibility, food-pairing versatility and margins that work across all menu tiers.
